Abstract

Dispositif d'antitachyarythmie implantable ayant la capacité de détecter des tachyarythmies multiples, telles que la tachycardie ventriculaire et la fibrillation ventriculaire, et d'administrer des thérapies multiples, telles que la stimulation antitachycardie, la cardioversion et la défibrillation. Afin d'assister le médecin dans la compréhension du fonctionnement de l'appareil au cours de la détection d'une tachyarythmie, et de mieux comprendre le fonctionnement de la thérapie fournie par le dispositif, ledit dispositif transmet des informations relatives à ces fonctions sur une base battement par battement, en tant que complément aux signaux de marquage associés à des manifestations cardiaques stimulées et détectées. La télémétrie d'information concernant la détection permet au médecin de déterminer comment l'intervalle R-R particulier précédant la télémétrie a effectué les comptages internes ou d'autres paramètres diagnostiques requis pour procéder à la détection de la tachyarythmie. De la même manière, en conjonction avec des impulsions de stimulus, ledit dispositif transmet des informations indiquant laquelle des thérapies disponibles est actuellement appliquée.
